Chapter 122: Chapter 50: Money Means Willfulness
Regarding Lin Musen asking her to change the way she addressed him, Song Qiao thought about it and realized the most she could do was to call him "Young Master Lin," directly calling him "Musen" was something she just couldn’t bring herself to do!
After all, she and Lin Musen were not very close, at most they had a superior-subordinate relationship, and to add more, it was only because he was familiar with Shen Yi, who was her senior!
Song Qiao gave a light smile, but did not speak!
Generally, for relationships that weren’t very close, she couldn’t bring herself to use a term that sounded too intimate; the most she could manage was calling Lin Musen "Young Master Lin" or maybe "Mr. Lin"!
This time, Lin Musen really wanted to make Lu Jingchen bleed financially. He briefly looked at the menu and then directly ordered a stack of the restaurant’s most expensive, and not necessarily the tastiest, dishes!
Song Qiao watched Lin Musen across from her still continuously ordering dishes, and could not help but twitch the corners of her mouth. Soon after, she turned her head toward Lu Jingchen who was beside her, and slowly asked, "Did you offend him or something?"
Lu Jingchen slightly curved his lips, and softly said, "Yeah, sort of. I took a deal worth fifty million from him before."
It wasn’t really stealing, but rather a matter of capability!
It was only later that she realized how close the two of them were sitting, making Song Qiao startle and subconsciously move to the side, but the man beside her, whether intentionally or unintentionally, moved his hand that was resting on the back of the sofa, directly blocking Song Qiao’s shoulder!
Song Qiao instantly dared not move any longer, yet she heard the man’s deep voice by her ear, "If you move any further in, you’ll hit the glass; I’m not going to eat you up!"
Song Qiao wanted to cry; it wasn’t because she feared this man would consume her, but rather she was not accustomed to being so close to the opposite sex!
Pursing her lips, Song Qiao fell silent, quietly observing Lin Musen from across, who appeared to be, with an attitude nearly resembling wanting ’Lu Jingchen to go bankrupt’, continuously ordering dishes.
In the past when her mother was still around, although the Song Family was not a prominent clan, they were considered wealthy in An City, and she had quite an allowance. However, she never spent money extravagantly like how these men were doing, splurging without concern over whether the expensive items were worth the price or not; such an approach was indeed unfamiliar to her!
Though the money being spent was not Lin Musen’s, but Lu Jingchen’s!
The Lu Family was one of the top prominent families in An City, and Lu Jingchen was the sole authority figure in the family. It was said that in his youth, he started his own venture, turning ten million into several hundreds of millions. With such a business acumen, his net worth increased exponentially; to him, this amount of money was nothing!
However, Song Qiao still felt the pinch watching the money being spent, even though it wasn’t hers. Ever since she left the Song Family, she had been trying to make ends meet and was frugal with her spending, hence watching Lin Musen squandering money made her feel particularly pained!
Lu Jingchen turned his head to look at Song Qiao’s expression, and thinking about her life in the past few years, a peculiar feeling surfaced in his heart, almost subconsciously, he leaned closer to her ear and said, "Let him fleece me this time, it’s fine. After all, this counts as our marriage celebration with them, next time I’ll take you to fleece him back!"
Song Qiao stiffened, feeling a warm moist sensation on her ear—it was the heat from the man’s breath by her ear!
